Accessibility Throughout the Design Process

Accessibility basically means that people with disabilities can use a product. Designing for accessibility doesn't require a whole new design process; it generally involves only minor adjustments to your existing design methodology. For example, accessible design techniques fit well into User-Centered Design (UCD) processes.
This Webcast session introduces how to integrate accessibility throughout design, and includes guidance and tips on:

• Including people with disabilities in your project, from early analysis to formal usability testing
• Incorporating accessibility into usability evaluation methods and techniques
• Planning, preparing for, and conducting effective usability tests with participants with disabilities, including recruiting people with disabilities
• The role of accessibility standards and guidelines, along with usability methods

We’ll also have lots of time for your questions and discussion. I hope this session will empower you with confidence to incorporate accessibility and involve people with disabilities throughout your design project. ~Shawn
